The father of the current president of the Philippines, who is also the former president of the Philippines, fled to the United States after being overthrown and transferred a large amount of embezzled funds to the United States. The amount of these funds is as high as tens of billions of dollars. In the past few years, they have been investigated by the U.S. Department of Justice. The U.S. state machine can easily use these seized funds to reach a private agreement with the Philippine president to make him cooperate with the U.S. diplomatic strategy. If he does not comply, the funds will be confiscated. It is too easy. This is why among the countries in the South China Sea, only the Philippines has the most radical approach to China and is the least willing to protect its actual national interests.
who care,America daddy need Philippines to deter china now.and everyone think china is weaker than usa, America even not dare to send army to protect his father Iseral,so Philippines thinks they can,America just a paper tiger.🤣🤣
to the point.
after Marcos Sr did u see improvement of the Philippine Military?look at the result of disregarding military funding and modernization 😅 ...
this is just conspiratory. Philippines already have tensions with China for this sea even in the past decades, with 2012 Scarborough Shoal Standoff firing it to even new heights. While during the traitorous Duterte's administration, PH already exhausted of soft power means to fight off China's claims, tried to befriend China instead with us thinking it will help smooth it out.
China never respected us despite our efforts of friendly relations.
PH will always go anti China after the Duterte's disastrous move, no matter who seat in the presidency.
remember, Philippines are always Pro-US especially within our military.
And your last statement a
are just flat out lie. Philippines are going against China because we are trying to protect our national interest. And it's Vietnam who are the most radical in fighting off China for these waters, enough to even have military engagements with China.
The pagpag president is desperately grabbing at straws.
Does anyone really trust them to return the moolah ? What can pagpag eater do if they don't return it ? Use their brahmos on them ??😅
Everyone knows puppet marcos took order from his master

Well because if you didn't know, Philippine has territory dispute with ASEAN members too.

The Philippines has exhausted all non-violent dialogues with China over these issues for decades.

Yet, you still consider the Filipinos aggressive. That's quite a perspective.

legally as unclos stated. that part of the sea belongs to philippines eez. if china is allowed it is a bad precedence- imagine 1000 miles eez if pursued by every country there wil be hundred of wars. because a thousand miles eez will cause teritorial conflicts never seen before. during spanish times those islands belong to the philippines as seen on velarde maps
@@melb758 Yeah, Ferdinand Marcos and Imelda Marcos' billion-dollar assets are also held by the US.
We don’t need spy. Go away!
@@melb758At that time, the Philippines belonged to Spain, so China should discuss this issue with Spain.😂
During the tenure of the former Philippine president, there was no violent conflict between China and the Philippines, mainly because both sides abided by the gentleman's agreement reached verbally. The problem is that the new Philippine president overturned the gentleman's agreement after taking office and took the initiative to escalate the conflict again.
This is part of President Marcos's diplomatic strategy of obeying the United States, while ignoring the real national interests of the Philippines. The conflict between the Philippines and China constitutes a favorable condition for the United States to intervene in the South China Sea, but in the real reality, the Philippines cannot gain any benefits.
Nice try, but the China Coast Guard's use of water cannon started during Duterte's time every time the Filipinos supplies their troops in BRP Sierra Madre.
😅
As a Filipino, even when Duterte was the president, Chinese coast guard won't stop committing stupid things mostly on our coast guard and our innocent fishermen, while he didn't even want to pay attention from it. I'n fact, they've started to use water cannons on our territorial waters when Duterte was the president. I'm not implying that I support Marcos, I support neither one of them. Nothing has actually changed about China's aggression, it just intensifies year by year.
@@cuteman6501 It's a pity that we are on the brink of war now, the situation is much more tense than during Duterte's time.
there was once a legendary president of the Philippines before your idol mang kanor became president who filed a case to tribunal against china,dont point your finger to Marcos Jr because China's agression started during Pnoy's term, whoever the president of the Ph today Chinas commitment to claim other countries territory will never change and thats the truth its their plan to replace U.S as superpower economically and Militarily ...and china must defeat U.S militarily to do that ,theres no other way...

Djibouti, Sri Lanka, and Cambodia were also not sovereign states because they houses Chinese military bases.

Why should they bow down to emperor xi? They dont support bandits acting like angels
Calm down guys, not saying bow down or anything man made decision, just from the plain sight view this looks very very bad, and you know sometimes politics have this risk taken elements that if I can do this and there will be a upper hand for me, but the thing is, in reality not a lot of nations around it are willing to take risk so the risk are fully on whoever wanted to participate, this is simple math and logic.
Also if people participate in market trading they understand, this is all math. You want minimize risk and extend profits.
So it’s like…this looks so bad from outside, not saying that there’s no way out, it’s just so bad from looking at it, also if someone in charge got it into that position…I’m not sure.. I’m not sure, let’s say if I’m leader of free world, I’m not sure I wanted to help personally, but it’s not personal, sometimes these things are institutional, but it’s just so bad
Given the significant amount of foreign investment moving out of China and into other Asian countries, I would say that the Philippines efforts to highlight the PLA's aggressions in the South China Sea for the world to see are working perfectly.

The professionalism of the NAVSOG is outstanding! Even when a soldier lost a finger. The navsog kept their composure. No Chinese got hurt but filipino soldiers keep getting injured. Now we know who's the real pirate LOL.
this all started when marcos allowed new US bases in the philippines, the philippines can sugar coat these bases whatever they want, in china's view its all to contain them, and in a stroke of irony the chinese doing the same to the philippines and they dont like it one bit
Nonsensical comment!
Contain? How so? Theyre in the ph, not some illegally built up reefs in the scs inside other countries’ eezs. China can paint itself as the victim but we all know what theyre doing to their neighbors they have disputes with. Maybe china should throttle down on their claims thats already been proven invalid and illegal and start acting like a civilized nation they wouldnt have incidents like this and with india, taiwan, japan, sokor, vietnam, indonesia the list goes on and on and. Among those states, some with overlapping claims, you wont see violence and tension like what youd see with china. So whos the common denominator stoking tension in the region?

It's appalling that people these days support those who are unjustly claiming land that belongs to others, especially when they are thousands of miles away. Supporting such blatant aggression makes you complicit in their evil actions. It's disgraceful and shows a complete lack of integrity and moral decency.
Just like how the world watches the Israel vs Palestine conflict.
Exactly!!!
The Chinese claim it is Chinese territory, the Philippines claims it is the Philippines' EEZ, what the Chinese are doing is far from aggression.
There are people who wish for peace and development to bridge the differences, knowing that territorial disagreements can be settled without a war. And there are people who want conflicts to rip off profits from, so they support one side and try to make this sound like a moral ground. Let me know where you stand, my friend.
What is even more shocking is that in your understanding, territorial ownership is divided according to distance. Guam are closer to China, so why are they American territories instead of Chinese territories? During World War II, China, the United States and Britain held the Cairo Conference in Cairo and issued the Cairo Declaration, which clearly stated that the South China Sea islands illegally occupied by Japan must be returned to China. In the subsequent Potsdam Declaration, it was emphasized again that the Cairo Declaration must be implemented. You should ask yourself, as China becomes more and more powerful, why did the United States and Britain change their positions and claim that the South China Sea islands do not belong to China and that China's territorial claims to the South China Sea islands are aggression?

Not everyone in the Philippines agrees with what the President of the Philippines is doing.

Pls do not take American assurance seriously. If a conflict breaks out, there is a high stake that US step aside and Philippine people would have to take the suffering such as Ukraine people. Ukraine took US vows seriously, challenged the strong neighbor and invited an unimaginable devastation in to their country
The Phillippines have no right to compare themselves to Ukraine. First, they and China both claimed sea territory that belonged to no one before their respective claim. Not land territory under any sort of sovereignty! Second, they were repeatedly warned by China, whereas Russia never warned Ukraine of its own intention. In fact, they purposefully misled Ukraine until the last minute before the "Special Military Operation". Third, the US unequivocally emphasized that they would avoid an armed conflict with Russia before the Ukraine war broke out, so Zelensky knew he could not count on the US or NATO to provide any direct military support. But the US did say it would respond if a Phillipino soldier died in conflict with China.
It is not about US support in the first place. It is about China's illegal invasion of Philippine's own Exclusive Economic Zone and harassment.
Are there enough bananas in the Philippines to pay for protection fees? 🤔
@@thefourthrabbit9516
I beg to disagree to your "belonged to no one before their respective claim".
China just started to claim the whole South China Sea in 1947 through their newly made up imaginary 9-dashed line map, while the Scarborough and Spratly Islands in the Philipine side of South China Sea was already included to the official maps of the Philippines since 1734 (Murillo Velarde Map), 1908 and 1875 (Carta General del Archiepelago Filipino maps).
In addition, the UNCLOS already provides each countries with 200 nautical mile exclusive economic zones (EEZ) in which China is also a signatory. The permanent arbitral coury already ruled on 2016 that China's 9-dashed line claim for the whole South China Sea is baseless ang illegal. The whole harassment by China is happening inside the Philippine's EEZ while China should not be there in the first place. China should abide to the inthernational law and should not harass its neighbors. That will lead to peace in the region.
There’s a huge difference between Ukraine and the Philippines. For example, there are millions of Filipino Americans in the U.S., and if the saying blood runs thicker than water ever comes to mind, you’d know that the situation is very much different unlike that of Ukraine, who just now joined NATO in the midst of being invaded.

Which is why i dont understand why Malaysia and other ASEAN leaderships seem to imply that we are unnecessarily dragging the region to conflict when we are simply defending our territory as stipulated under international law (UNCLOS). China has been violently harrasing our people and fishermen from fishing in our very own seas.
ASEAN is so spineless when it comes to our very own regional issues.
China owned those reefs 50 years before UNCLOS exited.
UNCLOS didn’t apply to disputes existed long time before its existence.
@julioduan7130 if they did, they would have won that argument in the arbitration ruling in 2016 to which China is signatory. China is cherrypicking international laws favorable to them
except for the fact that your "territory" is also claimed by vietnam, malaysia, brunei, taiwan its a disputed between multiple nations not just china and philippines do you really think that this countries if ever by some miracle beat china they will give this to you? they also have interest on it
taiwan even protest alongside with china when the philippine "won" the 2016 arbitral tribunal because same with china, they also claim all of the spratlys via 9 dashline
this is a layer of disputes not just the philippines
@Paulmnl you have to look from a high perspective. Chinese claimed the whole south China sea mainly they want to break the USA containment. Look at Google map, their coastline is surrounded by American bases, south China sea especially important for their shipping lane. As long as ASEAN countries willing to join explore and jointly own the sea, China will be happy to do it since their security is protected. But when Philippines allow American to set up another 5 military bases, China has lost hope in Philippines and more conflicts will happen with Philippines.
Other ASEAN countries stay neutral & silience because they know PH is trying to help its former colonized imperial to attempt to colonize ASEAN again, and China is there to stop PH provocative behavior & maintain peace.
This time PH sent military special forces with machine guns. The intention is obvious PH is attempt to use killing to threat ASEAN countries.

China's illegal presence and creeping expansion within the Philippine Exclusive. Economic Zone is a blatant disregard to international rule of UNCLOS

China is among the first countries who signed the UNCLOS in 1982 and ratified it in 1994. But China niw refuses to follow the rule based order of UNCLOS and rejects the arbitral court's' ruling to pursue its unfriendly, and aggressive territorial expansion and total control of global trade and navigation in the south china sea.

China has created man-made islands in the South China Sea in an attempt to expand their territorial waters at the expense of the Philippines. This is unprecedented in history.
if usa do not step into it, Philippines shall have withdraw the warships and not to provoke the china again.
If it is closer to the Philippines, it must be the Philippines, not China? Take a look at the following examples:
1. Of the 2,500 islands in the Aegean Sea, Greece directly occupies more than 2,400, while Turkey occupies less than 100. Among them, Samos Island is occupied by Greece and is only 1,600 meters away from the coast of the Turkish mainland
2. Channel Islands, also known as the Normandy Islands: Located in the English Channel at the entrance of the Bay of Saint-Malo, northwest of the Cotentin Peninsula in France, near the French coast, the nearest is less than 12 nautical miles (miles), and 130 kilometers or 80 nautical miles north of the British Isles of Great Britain. The main islands are Guernsey and Jersey. But the sovereignty of the islands belongs to the United Kingdom
3. Canary Islands: About 130 kilometers east of the west coast of Africa and about 1,100 kilometers northeast of Spain (equivalent to the straight-line distance from Beijing to Shanghai). It is an autonomous region of Spain and a territory of the European Union, not belonging to the closer African country Morocco
4. The Malvinas Islands are about 500 kilometers east of Argentina, but about 13,000 kilometers from the British mainland (equivalent to the straight-line distance from Shanghai to Moscow), and are currently under the jurisdiction of the United Kingdom
5. New Caledonia Island is located about 1,500 kilometers east of Brisbane, Australia, and more than 20,000 kilometers from mainland France (equivalent to half a circle around the earth's equator). Its sovereignty belongs to France
6. Guam Island is located in the western Pacific Ocean, 9,800 kilometers east of the United States (equivalent to 3 times the straight-line distance from Harbin, Heilongjiang Province to Haikou, Hainan Province), and 3,010 kilometers west of China (mainland) (2,500 kilometers from Taiwan, China)
Look at Falkland Islands (Islas Malvinas, it is close to Argentina, while it had been taken and claimed by UK backed by US. Anyone can explain? It is not a problem to make an international rule, problem is double standard. US and its friend countries can define whatever fit their interest. And this is the sources of all international conflicts.
@@Eatearth2020 我的意思是不能以远近论归属,你的脑子进水了?
Sometimes looking at the comments. I wonder if the message is actually getting tbro. This area belongs to the Philippines. China should not be bothering them. Unfortunately, unfortunately, the way the laws written for. The US to really help the Philippines, it's gonna have to escalate.
These things are unjust for the philippit's. I see from all the reports with other countries. With China's done as far as I'm concerned, they are a bully.
Unfortunately, there's only one way to deal with 1. And I hope millions don't die
The ph-USA treaty was signed in the 1950s, and unfortunately, ph never claimed this water to be theirs in the 1950s. BTW, USA never signed so called "international law" that the ph's claim based on lol.
If things escalate it will not be millions it will be billions upon, billions, upon billions.
According to Basic Document No. 578 of U.S. Foreign Policy from 1977 to 1980, armed attacks under the MDT refer to the Treaty of Paris signed by Spain and the United States in 1898 and the Treaty of Washington signed by the United Kingdom and the United States in 1900 (revised in 1930 ), as well as external armed aggression against Pacific island territories under Philippine jurisdiction.
In a 1975 legal interpretation, the United States further declared that it would not "recognize" Philippine sovereignty over islands in the South China Sea. During the negotiation and ratification of the 1952 Mutual Defense Treaty, the United States held that “the Spratly Islands are outside the Philippine territory ceded to the United States in the 1898 treaty with Spain.”
In other words, the United States believes that the islands in the South China Sea are not within the sovereignty of the Philippines.
Both countries are behaving in an uncivilized way because one thing is absent. DIALOGUE. The area they're fighting about doesn't belong to either of them. It's being claimed by several nations. If the path of dialogue is taken, all nations may compromise and share the benefits in these contested seas. But if the path of aggression is taken ( by china or philippines or whoever) to forcelly claim and insist the area is theirs then it becomes a question of who has the biggest muscles, which again is an uncivilized way to resource differences in this day and age.

Only water, food and medicine is allowed. Eventually the Sierra Madre will fall apart which will reduce tensions in the region.
Before that happens, the trigger happy Chinese will make a mistake, the only reason US isn't retaliating is because no life was lost YET. China can only flex on the Philippines because they know they are adhering to international laws.
If China is mighty, why haven't they taken Taiwan yet? Or do the same risky maneuvers on Taiwanese vessels the same way they do with the Ph?
China can only show power against the weak and its own people, but it doesn't dare stand up against the Japan, US, AUS, and EU.

Filipinos, I want to know why there was no conflict between China and the Philippines during your last president's tenure
Because of the territorial dispute between the WPS, there was already a tension between the two nations; that was even before the current regime of Marcos. The tension just rose as Chinese maritime police kept on harassing Filipino fishermen doing their job inside the exclusive economic zone of the country. It is all like that up until this point, where soldiers are now harmed as well.
@@MaddyTweens Yeah, Ferdinand Marcos and Imelda Marcos' billion-dollar assets are also held by the US.
Because the previous government emphasized economic development, a "gentlemen's agreement" was signed with China in order to peacefully resolve territorial disputes without conflict and bring in Chinese investment and markets.
And this administration is constantly strengthening nationalism and targeting their biggest economic partner. I don't understand, is money in American banks really more important than national interests?
@@MaddyTweens After World War II, the Cairo Declaration and the Potsdam Proclamation clearly stipulated that Japan should return the occupied territories to China. In December 1946, with the participation of the US fleet, China recovered the waters of the the Nansha Islands occupied by Japan and divided them into 12 parts. After 1949, China adjusted and changed them to the nine segment line.
Before 1975, Vietnam explicitly recognized China's territorial sovereignty over the the Nansha Islands through government statements. The Paris Treaty signed by the United States and Spain in 1898 and the Washington Treaty signed in 1900 clearly defined the territorial scope of the Philippines, excluding the the Nansha Islands! This is further confirmed by the Philippine Constitution of 1953 and the Treaty of Military Alliance between the Philippines and the United States of America of 1951, which excludes the the Nansha Islands.
In 2016, with the support of the United States, President Aquino III of the semi colonial Philippines unilaterally applied for the South China Sea arbitration case, which did not try territorial ownership issues. Because territorial sovereignty is a contractual issue between countries, the International Court of Justice and the United Nations do not make any judgments or regulations on territorial sovereignty. According to international law, any international trial must require both parties to participate in order to be legal. In fact, China has not participated in the South China Sea arbitration case. According to the International Convention on the Sea, 200 kilometers of the offshore waters of each country's islands belong to its economic waters. At the request of the United States and the Philippines, the South China Sea arbitration case decided that the the Nansha Islands were not islands but rocks, and wanted to use this trial to deny the economic scope of 200 kilometers off China's coast. In fact, there are many islands in the the Nansha Islands, and the largest island even has an airport runway, so the South China Sea arbitration case is a ridiculous farce. Even more absurdly, the United States did not sign the International Maritime Convention but demanded that China recognize the judgment of the South China Sea arbitration case. In 2024, the United States sanctioned the International Court of Justice with anti Semitism and did not recognize the International Court's trial of the President of Israel.
The most likely reason is Duterte's political inclinations influenced by Jose Maria Sison, the founder of the Communist Party of the Philippines, under whom Duterte studied during his university years. Duterte exhibited significant animosity towards the United States during his term. In contrast, Marcos aligns more closely with the approaches the previous Philippine presidents would have taken addressing the encroachment on the Philippines' territory.

For those accusing Chinese aggression, you should first feel strange why a rusted ship is there for 20 years. If you don't know, please look up history how Sierra Madre ended up there. The Chinese first occupied it and set merestone there. Years after that Philippines put the ship there (same time when US and NATO boomed Chinese embassy in Belgrade) claiming it to be stranded and cannot be removed for technical reasons. It's like a homeless occupying your yard and claiming that he cannot move due to his disabilities. Will you allow him to stay in your yard forever? Will it be aggression if you want him to leave?
